Women’s March Returns to Santa Barbara This Sunday

This Sunday, January 22, would have been the 50th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the landmark Supreme Court decision that recognized and protected the constitutional right to abortion in the United States. 

Instead, it marks nearly seven months since the decision was overturned in June 2022.

Women’s rights activists in Santa Barbara and nationwide will use the day to mourn the loss of Roe’s constitutional protections, and take action to defend and uphold their freedoms. A rally and march has been scheduled for Sunday by Women’s March Santa Barbara, under the national movement’s calling card “Bigger than Roe.”
